Randall Emmett and Ryan Garcia were already sitting just a couple of tables away in the Horseshoe Bronze section, but neither player wanted to be noticed as they sat in disguise through the opening level on Day 2d. However, they certainly made themselves known when they returned from the first break, dressed in what else but boxing outfits, ready to square off.
With "Eye of the Tiger" playing in the background, both players jaunted to their seats and then squared off up against the ropes of the tournament area. A little showman-like gesture from the famous actor and the professional boxer and they were ready to rumble ad Day 2d continues.

Hossein Ensan opened to 2,000 from early position and called a three-bet of 5,000 from Raymond Dolan in middle position.
Ensan check-called a 3,500 bet from Dolan on the 8♠10♠2♥ flop, but check-folded after a lengthy tank facing a shove for 17,300 from Dolan on the Q♥ turn.
Safiya Umerova was all in preflop from middle position against Chris Moorman.
Safiya Umerova: K♠K♣
Chris Moorman: Q♣Q♥
Moorman was not rescued by the runout of 10♠7♦2♠7♥7♣, which cost him half his stack.
In the final hand before the break, three players were already on the A♦9♦8♦ flop, with Alan Keating already all in on the button. The pot stood at around 50,000 and action was on Jeffrey Zigulis in the big blind.
Zigulis moved all in for his remaining 155,200, and action went to William Leffingwell to either call or fold. Leffingwell asked "How much is it?" before saying "You know I have you covered right?".
Leffingwell took around a minute before folding, leaving the players to go heads-up to showdown.
Alan Keating: K♠Q♣
Jeffrey Zigulis: 8♠8♥
Keating needed to find help on the runout to remain in the tournament, but missed on the 9♣ turn and 7♦ river, sending him home at the end of the first level of the day.
